Happy weekend! This week’s list is a good one. So many bookish lists. Movies and TV (Another Bridget Jones movie? A sequel to The Joker!?) for us to get excited about. Beautiful homes, yummy recipes. So many things. I am planning on a pretty quiet weekend as this week was on the more hectic side. Whatever you are up to, I hope it’s wonderful. Enjoy the links.

I love your links, but so many of them are behind paywalls. Can you post them as gift links?
Hi Betsy, I don’t get gift links for all. I try to occasionally but for example, I only get 5 gift links a month from NY Times. I wish I had more.
I was excited to read the article on menopause, thinking it would be positive and empowering…but it’s about plastic surgery. Ugh. How disappointing. If anyone wants empowering, I listened to a fantastic podcast a week or so ago, The Mel Robbins Podcast, her episode from 21 March with Dr Mary Claire Haver. Such great info and insight!
I cannot resist a coffee scented anything. Very excited to try the Diptyque candle!
